Cleansing Again

Because I didn't order the 30-day system the first time, my product supply was a little screwed up for a while and I haven't been following the shake/cleanse schedule. In fact, after the San Diego trip, I've mostly just been on "maintenance,"  which in my world means, eat whatever I want in between shakes or just have one shake a day and whatever food is around.  And amazingly, I'm still at the same weight where I left off, which really says something about the science as I understand it, and gives credence to the recommendation of Isagenix to "deep cleanse" twice a year and "daily cleanse" by drinking the shakes and Cleanse for Life the rest of the time and incorporating them into your daily life.  Sure, I'm more inspired to eat organic, healthy food now.  But I still go to Wendy's.  And eat fro-yo (although I'd honestly rather have an isalean shake 9 times out of 10).  So I've inadvertently been testing the claims that the weight stays off after the deep cleanse.  (Inadvertently because I still have a goal to reach and should actually be following the deep cleanse schedule till I get there). 

Yesterday, I put on a very tight dress that I sewed last year (yes, sewed.  I don't sew, I sewed.)  Haven't been able to even get it on since last August!  It felt so good to be able to not only fit into it, but wear it confidently all day.  I'm happy.
